I got a booming sinus infection and by chance happened to eat a grapefruit. I found this helped clear the pressure and ate one a day. In three days it was gone.
I googled this and I came across using grapefruit seed extract GSE for sinusitis.
So my question is, does eating grapefruit assist in clearing sinuses? Or was it all in my head?
Anyone had such an experience?

Eating grapefruit is not quite the same as taking GSE supplements. But grapefruits do have vitamin C so can only help. I take GSE for colds and it does seem to help tremendously.

Over 90% of sinus infections are viral:

OP, it was probably a viral infection that just ran its course. I doubt it was the grapefruit!

Doubt it. Probably coincidental. But hey, whatever works!!!
